Scalable Infrastructure for Distributed Sensor Networks

by Krishnendu Chakrabarty, S. Sitharama Iyengar, S.S. Iyengar

Book Overview

Advances in the miniaturization of microelectromechanical systems have led to battery-powered sensor nodes that have sensing, communication and p- cessingcapabilities. Thesesensornodescanbenetworkedinanadhocmanner to perform distributed sensing and information processing. Such ad hoc s- sor networks provide greater fault tolerance and sensing accuracy and are typically less expensive compared to the alternative of using only a few large isolated sensors...
